Event details

To mark the 35 years since the massacres at Sabra and Shatila and the 50 years since the Naksa (the 1967 War), and in honor of nearly 70 years of occupation of Palestine, join Mizna for an evening of story sharing followed by a Ismail Khalidi’s play Sabra Falling, presented by Pangea World Theater. The wonderful Professor Joe Farag will be moderating the event.
